About Guest, Donald Grothoff:
I’m Don Grothoff, a Dad, EFT Practitioner, and, Mindset Coach. When I had my second child, I had no idea she would have OCD and the tough journey she would take us through. Then to find my youngest suffering from it, we relived the whole journey again. This painful anxiety disorder crippled both kids, me, and my family.

While their OCD never went away, the girls, my family, and I have learned to manage it. I became dedicated to learning methods that I could use to help them and the family cope, bring down anxiety, and eventually manage their OCD.

I decided to use the skills I acquired as a Dad and from Emotional Freedom Techniques training to be a mindset coach for individuals and families to handle the curveballs that life throws their way. I use my skills in naturopathic and holistic doctors’ offices to help patients through their healing process, make them more efficient, healthy and satisfied patient.

About Guest, Kyle Jetsel:
My name is Kyle Jetsel and For years I (and My now deceased wife, Shelly) struggled raising our 6 “strong-willed” kids. Nothing seemed to be off-limits for this “seemingly feral” crew. From biting, kicking and screaming... to defiance, arguments, fights and threats... to then... even physical confrontation with us. As the challenges mounted (oppositional defiance, suicidal thoughts and ideation, autism spectrum, etc., etc...) we spared no expense. When the books and training and specialists and therapists failed to help us with our "AT HOME" challenges, we made it our business to better understand how we could parent our kiddos in a spirit of love. Through the "secrets" we learned, we dramatically LOWERED STRESS for everyone and TRANSFORMED our family... even AS we raised our “spirited” kids. Now, WE TEACH that same framework and recipe to other families so they can become what our family has become. A top 1% happy family.
